Is this their revenue on scientific journal bullshit, or total?
Because I'm pretty sure authors of their actual books get paid.
Books! 😂 I've written chapters and been chief editor for multiple books. The pay for these scientific rags is absolute dirt for authors. Tons of work and unless it's a major success, no one respects them as they aren't peer reviewed. We just can't say no. I've spent months writing chapters for absolutely nothing.
Define actual books?
